Comments Thread For: Schaefer Explains Why Mayweather Did Not Select Khan

[FrankieBruno]

Actually you are the one who seems to have reading comprehension issues.

Schaefer said that 'maybe' it would not have sealed it for Khan.

Quite a distinction there.

Sounds to me that he was simply covering up for the decision maker's blunder. Whoever made that call.

Richard would never have mentioned it if there was no truth in it

Out of everyone he has the most personal dealings with Floyd, it seems he is suggesting Maidanas win over Broner was the bigger deal,no matter what route Khan took

Floyd jumped on to something that was hot, Khans win over Devon would have been tame in comparison.

If on one side you have a guy with a title who beat some boring fighter and on the otherside you have a guy with a title who beat a undefeated loud mouth overhyped fighter, which one do you pick?

Broner on casual boxing fans paper sadly is a bigger win than Devon, even if Devon is the more skilled fighter.

Thats because GBP had no one else to offer.

Soon as Maidana came into the picture that all changed

Floyd had made his mind up straight away, thats why he was telling Broner not to fight Maidana in interviews, he wanted the fight for himself.

Like Richard said Khan beating Devon would not have got him the fight if Maidana beat Broner.

Golden Boy had plenty to offer. They removed them all from the picture very quickly because they wanted Mayweather/Khan.

All of this talk about Khan posing any kind of problem for Mayweather is hilarious. Maidana May or may not have a chance either but at least he earned it at WW unlike Khan.

Mayweather Realised That Khan have Equal Speed and that's why he ducked him

Yeah you're right you must know more then top fighters and people involved in boxing, who've said otherwise

I don't need anyone to tell me that Khan is a challenge to Mayweather because clearly he is not. He hasn't looked good at all in his last two fights and he hasn't even fought at WW. Top it off with him being a mental midget in the ring. He stands absolutely no chance against Mayweather.

You don't need much to see the obvious this time.

El Chino EARNED it.

Khan, with his huge ego, thought his name alone would do it. But Khan hasn't looked good in ages.

For once, although it is a mismatch, kudos to Floyd for picking the guy that actually EARNED it. Happy for el Chino.

By beating Boner, looking like crap against lopez until the KO and losing every round to Devon Sharapova????

LMAO @ 'EARNED IT'!

The fact khan has been inactive is irrelevant, that don't harm Floyd when hes inactive. Because khan has been in the gym training even without a fight lined up, that's what Floyd essientially does.

Diaz fight was work in progress so don't take too much into that.
And the excuse that khan didn't have a signature win at 147? Well JMM didn't have a signature win at 140, let alone 147 when you cherry picked him, so contradiction all the way, never ending.

Shut your cry baby ass up! Juan looked real good getting a sweet win before he fought Floyd. And Marquez has never been knocked out and does not have a glass chin like Khan.

So Marquez is a cherry pick now? But Khan ducked Devon and is now watching from the sideline deal with it cry baby
